A truck loaded with Coca-Cola products has crushed three persons to death in Ibadan. They were killed at the Total Garden area of Ibadan, Oyo.
The victims of the accident were a commercial motorcyclist and two passengers.
A witness, Joel Idowu, stated that the fully-loaded truck killed the motorcyclist and his passengers in front of Bovas filling station while the motorbike tried to overtake the truck.
Mr Idowu explained that some angry youths and motorcyclists at the scene attempted to set the truck ablaze, but security operatives prevented them by shooting into the air.
